‘Supernatural’ is now the longest running series in the history of The CW. Personally, I hope we still have many seasons left to come. Shows that have such a huge, dedicated following are rare these days and I’ll admit it, I’m a huge ‘Supernatural’ fan, I have been hooked since the beginning. Dean and Sam’s history is complicated, Castiel and Crowley are flawed and when added to the mix makes for a entertaining show that has endless turns and will keep you guessing. Dean spent last season fighting the mark of Cain. Finally,at the end of season 10, the curse of Cain was lifted. Dean kills Death and darkness is unleashed. Last we saw Castiel, he was under a spell driving him to try to kill Crowley. The last moments of the season 10 finale set us up for an action packed start to season 11. The brothers are facing an onslought of evil hidden inside the darkness. This season
